I only counted 5 tips, but I was busy trimming my eyebrows :D 1. Outdated clothing styles -jeans with rhinestones -get classic, tailor fit, dark wash jeans -flashing button up shirts with contrasting cuffs -get small dots or small checks, or dark solid colors 2. Not getting skin care (cue Ad) 3. Outdated style shoes, shoes for wrong occasion -no square toes -shiny dress shoes & jeans don't match well 4. Gray hair and grooming -embrace the gray hair, dyeing is too obvious -purple shampoo cancels out the yellow of gray -address wild hairs in nose and brows 5. Having an old man attitude -resisting change, new technology -stop saying "back in my day..." -open your mind and try to accept some new things

Yes -- after 25-30 years with a beard, I shaved it off at about age 68. I don't like grey hair on my face. Mustache would probably go, too, except it covers an upper lip scar.

Of course our bodies and minds deteriorate as we age the trick is to see this as a challenge not a hindrance. The real test comes in your seventies.

One need not be a regimented exercise freak to remain in good shape. It helps enormously if, in your teens thru early thirties, you made an effort to be in good enough shape to play sports. That carries thru well into your sixties, typically because you maintain most of the habits. You continue to stay in shape, continue to not eat crap food, continue to not need medications. All those things make a significant difference in how you look, in how you act.

I’m 55 too but look younger. You would look younger if you shaved off your beard and dyed your hair. I don’t have as much gray as you but I use a little bit of coloring in my hair/beard makes a big difference. I still have plenty of gray so it looks natural but plenty of color too so more salt and pepper than just salt. Use the kind you leave in for a few minutes and rinse out completely for a natural look. Don’t use paint on shoe polish like hair color.

I always wear dark solids and clothing that fits my body, Skin care for face is Sukin rose hip oil and a night cream. I'm trying to embrace the gray, I agree the colored hair does not look natural on men.

I'm glad to mentioned nose and ear hair. It definitely makes a man look older. Another old man mistake is going too long between visits to the barber. If you spot someone whose haircut makes him look great, ask who he goes to. Nothing is more awful than twisting long eyebrow hairs into a sort of spike. Having or skipping face hair should be judged by someone you trust and not just anyone. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Chin hair never does. Jeans are another point. Baggy is so out. Snug, not tight is ideal. No need to spend a lot either for good ones. Wrangler makes some good choices without breaking the bank. Worn out undershirts, especially the collar, belong in the rag bag.

One thing you didn't touch on, and perhaps you did/will do in other videos is staying physically fit. There's no worse giveaway than hearing someone grunt whenever they get up out of a chair. I'm 70 now and have been blessed with good genes and without prompting people will think I'm ten or fifteen years younger. My response is usually that although I may be that old that I don't act my age. It's true too in that I still energetic and maintain a very positive yet realistic attitude. I'm active in that I ride my bicycle 30 miles every weekend that I can and will workout a couple times a week with my resistance bands at home, and use the treadmill instead of the bike if the weather sucks. I'm a widower who's still working full time and am about to enter into a relationship with a much younger woman. I still have my hair which is silver and keep it longish, and my hair dresser always complains about how much hair she has to sweep up after cutting it. The other thing about health is make sure you get a full physical every year and if a problem surfaces, deal with it!

Love this Mark! Thanks for sharing!

One thing that I found helped my mindset stay younger was listening to contemporary popular music. For example when driving, put on the station that is aimed at people in their 20s. That usually has all the modern chart music that most people stop listening to once they hit 30s (I'm in my 40s). You don't have to like all the music, but it keeps you on the pulse.

I think it is worth pointing out that your title implies that looking older is a bad thing.... that ain't always the case. Some classic styles (i.e. my 30 year old Barker Derby brogues) look better as you age and is quite nice to hear the Mrs and her sisters saying my "silver fox hair" suits me better than the brown when we first met many years ago....like a good scotch and Susanna Hoffs, somethings improve with age!!

I found this useful, in particular your recommendation that men use skin care products. Something you didn't mention is fitness. Men who stay fit as they age look decades younger than those who do not.

After observing some older folks with lower body fat percentage and the lines that are evident on their face, I'm purposely choosing to keep a few extra pounds to maintain that rounded face look which hides the wrinkles and age a bit better.

hi john, great video, i think grooming and taking care of your wardrobe are essential for an older guy. Cause the tendency is to not keep things looking fresh, like you don't care as much.

My hair (what there is left of it) is mostly grey now. I have a bald patch and I find that it doesn’t take my hair to grow very much at all to make the bald patch more obvious, so I got an electric rotary hair razor and now I keep it very short all over. I miss having dark hair though, but it doesn’t get me down. I’ve compensated for it by dressing smartly with the best quality Harris tweed jackets, wool trousers, shirts etc that I can afford. I always wear my shoes with a mirror shine before leaving the house. I find that people most often treat me with respect when I’m smartly dressed. My favourite garment is an 80% wool and 20% alpaca jet black overcoat for the winter. It’s reassuringly heavy but absolutely superb and so soft to the touch (ladies love stroking it 😁😁).

The first thing really that makes one look old is your actual natural physical appearance. By this, I mean it's not related to your dress style, but how your face, body, skin look. Things like drinking alcohol or smoking or eating poorly will make you look old faster than anything else. Live as healthy as possible, which doesn't require significant financial resources. It just requires persistency (desire, focus) and consistency (will power). Unfortunately, though, most people severely lack in these areas. Also, some will argue that they don't have the time. The answer to that, is that if it's truly important to you, then you will make time for it. That's it. No excuses.

Well said!

How’d you leave out those god forbidden… Hybrid Shoes? Dress shoe on top, sneaker on bottom! Whoever came up with those should be put in jail!

OMG! I'd never be caught dead in that paisley shirt &/or those jeans! Calendars like yours is a tactile thing. You don’t want to have to dig through your phone to figure out what you're going to be doing. And yes, it is an old school thing but I still prefer it.

Ha! Me too!

I appreciate your video and especially your humble attitude when offering advice. I must be that grumpy old man because it isn't that important to me to look younger than I am. Obviously, I watched your video, but after doing so, I realized that I just don't care that people know how old I really am. I have always admired most older people and so I will either be accepted as being the age I am or I won't be accepted. I am not going to buy a new wardrobe and start pretending that I want to embrace every new fad so that I can remain "relevant" to the young crowd. They have their pluses and old people have our pluses. I do agree that we should not be condescending and dismissive of modernity. But I frankly do prefer the "Good Ole' Days" even though they weren't always that good. And one day, most of these young bucks laughing at us old men and women will be just like we are (if they're lucky) and they too will be missing the Good Ole Days. Aging is just simply a fact of life. I personally believe young people should embrace their stage of life and that older people should do the same. I hope these comments are taken as intended.

The dedicated shoe video will definitely be very welcome!!

I am 54 and often get told 'you don't age,' ' haven't changed a bit,' 'don't look like you are in your 50's...' Back when I was 25 out of college I had a job calling on production facilities and would have really filthy, oily skin when I got home each evening. Every night and then after my morning shower I would apply Olay or Ponds after washing my face with a good quality facial soap... I would use those lotions mainly because my face would be so dry after washing and other lotions would burn when applied. I have continued to do this the past 29 years. Guess it has really helped as I don't have nearly the wrinkles other dudes my age (and younger) have on their face and neck.

Another thing that causes wrinkles is smoking. I caught up with an old buddy of mine I had seen in years. He's 60 and still a heavy smoker and he's got fine wrinkles all over his face.

Thank you sir.

Appreciate you! Thank you!

5:59 I don’t see what’s wrong with black shoes and jeans. The great thing about jeans is that they can go with basically everything, Converse, sneakers, Dr Martens or more dressy shoes. If you wear Converse or Dr Martens you would probably associate them with a t-shirt, sneakers will go well with a polo, and black shoes are perfect with a shirt (and a black belt).

Definitely, please make a video for different occasions... Waiting

Something not mentioned at all is diet. A great diet (definately NOT vegan) makes your skin/teeth/gums and hair look better than any product can mask.

Do the shoe John. Please be very detailed and expand the options. Thanks!!!

Shoe video would be good, but as a Brit, I buy English made shoes, yes expensive, but they last and are timeless. Definite investment pieces!!!

3:15 man, I don't have a single wrinkle and my 40 where few years ago. And yes I wash my face with soap everyday (usual soap, not something that contains oil or some herbs).

Yrs, please do a video about shoe styles, tips, and rules. That would be very helpful.

@@40OverFashion I was hoping hoping you could break it down into casual, semi formal and formal. I'm also shopping for a stylish, higher end mens sandal. There is no shortage of sport sandals, water sandals, etc., but I'm looking for something nicer that would go with shorts. Any brand recommendations?
